Well after a 340 mile round trip i eventually bought my winter bike but it seems far too good to get it dirty Its a cbr 600 i got for a steal only 14000 miles on the clock with one prev owner and its really nice . Sounds sweet too with the race can on it . The last owner only did 50 miles on it this year having no time to ride it New back tyre 7 months MOT and tax Pictures soon , i pick her up next saturday , well the missus will cos ill be on the zed following her It will be her bike to use as well in the summer months ....Cant wait

£100 to insure it thats with me and the missus on it and she's got 3 point for speeding Multi bike polocy was dearer It cost a wee bit more for her sp30 cos ive got one still running on mine , 34 in a 30 alledgedly :cop: Still the bumble bee will be out and about through the winter months for sure . Just hope it dont snow when im out and about but it will be fun anyway . Not too bothered about keeping it clean as the missus will do that A quick hose down after any salt and lashings of winter film protectant should see it through fine . New s/s braided brakelines front and rear already fitted as is a new tyre on the back . Best tell the missus to take it easy for the first 100 mile or so and no wheelies

..its had a respray about a year ago but proffesionaly done by the one prev owner Kin hardly hear it when its ticking over , its had the cam chain adjuster replaced but think it will need a decent service which ill do myself . The chain is ok but just surface rust on it cos its not been riden for a while , just a wee hairline crack on one of the side panels where he tried to get the panel off once but hardly noticeable . Mite need a new front tyre soon and thats about it :zzzz:
